  Let me approach this from MY perspective.? I live in zone 6.? How many of
these 39 introductions can I reasonably expect to rebloom in my garden?? (How
many were TB?)

  Bad news for the Rebloomers and for their Fans...

  Each year i go through the Registrations of the year, and count the irises
  registered as Rebloomers...
  Here is the table with the results:  year reblomers total
        2001 55 964
        2002 54 1051
        2003 52 1031
        2004 46 1052
        2005 43 1268
        2006 39 1152
        2007 39 1193



  The more irises that are registered, the less rebloomers there seems to be
  among them.
   I find these figures quite depressing...


  Unless breeders are so impatient to register them they don't take enough
time
  to wait for proof of rebloom,  or maybe they just don't bother signal it:
  there are many irises that have good rebloom potential considering the
  parents, and might be rebloomers finally....one can hope...!

  There is also the fact that a great number of irises come from cold
climates
  now, and might not have a chance to rebloom there.
  They might show rebloom with warmer and longer Autumns.......one can
  dream...!

  Voil`, food for thought, and maybe an incentive for all daubers, to have a
go,
  and give a chance to some RE X RE crosses....one can dream and hope !
